| Also, is there a "mini-season ticket" launch this year? Last year, the club did one in May.

Remember someone asking about this a few weeks ago did anyone reply to them?

| Attendances for the last three seasons vs Leigh:
2,854 July 2008
1,816 August 2007
2,160 April 2006
Surely we've got to bust the three thousand barrier on Sunday - seeing as though the standard set by this current sqaud is much higher. If not then maybe Starbug's point that the ending of P&R is more damaging than people think holds some truth.

Dunno about busting 3K as its all pay and all clubs struggle to get big gates for the NRC and CC matches becuase of this.
I would hope we get 2500 on Sunday as I doubt Leigh will bring that many, maybe 300?
I think the North stand should be open then we can a have a 'wall of sound' from Fax fans only from the South stand. I think it was quiet last year when there were 200 or more Whitehaven fans at the play off match in the South stand.

| Quote: Halifax RLFC "
free kids tickets is a difficult one. . . over the last four seasons we've given away thousands and thousands . . have they helped the crowd increase?. . i'm sure so . . but not in correlation to the numbers we've printed and passed out.
we all will know of kids who have started coming along, theres lots more of them now (the junior cheerleaders are an example)
'"
Utter bollox!
The cost of printing and distributing those leaflets was miniscule as they were done in house and the returns were a high percentage. I can remember collecting every single voucher that came back and the only time we didn't get a decent return was when it was left to somebody other than my self and Guy Williams to deliver them to a School or Company.
I can remember one occasion when I went into the office and asked if somebody could drop some vouchers off at a school near where they lived and they said "I'm not getting involved"! Some bright spark had convinced people in the office that free vouchers for kids didn't work
There's a difference between being helpful and being useful and unfortunately the club have some very helpful but useless people. When those useless people are no longer helpful what's the point in them being there?

| If the club had treat a few people a bit better over the years im sure they would have a lot more money in the coffers.
You have to ask yourself why dont any of the people who sponsored us in some of the worst times eg. relegation from SL and the first season in NL1, sponsor anymore? Where have they all gone? Afterall we are playing some of the best Rugby we have played in years, i bet im not far wrong that if you asked any of them why they are no longer involved it will be because of how they have been treated by the club. As good as things are on the field it still seems that off the field is as amateurish as ever.
I mean every succesful business person that has become involved with the club has slowly had their noses pushed out because the `clique`, who have no experience of running a succesful business, dont want to change things for the better. Are they afraid of change or afraid of getting tripped up?

| Mike, I've said it numerous times before, how many thousands of cars drive past The Shay on Huddersfield road every day? Put up a proper sign with places to slot in teams/dates like they have at odsal and hey presto, free advertising to thousands every day and much more professional than an A4 sheet of paper.

I'm sure if some of the past investors paid the club what they owed, it would go a long way to getting better players

As both clubs are tenents it's up to the council to put up the signs

I'm sure that if some of the past investors were correctly invoiced for what they want or what they got, and actually received what they were being billed for, it would go a long way to retaining their support to be able to fund better players.

I don't think so! It's their premises, but they aren't going to ask the clubs if they want a sign/billboard!
It would be a case of the clubs asking for Planning Permission while advising their landlord of what they intend to do and seek their permission. The Stadium management may then be happy to put in an application them selves to avoid the squabbling of the two clubs arguing over who is going to pay for it and how much usage they each get or the %age of space on the board etc etc, but it's certainly not up to the Council to do something about advertising for their tenants. How many people rent a shop from the Council and don't get any adverts paid for them?

| Quote: Brew "I think some of the things Keighley have been doing this season are quite good, and a bit unusual too.
Using the Mascot, Freddie the Cougar as a main part of the marketing, tied in with a Healthy Eating theme, they started out by having Freddie going for a run around Keighley each morning in the few weeks before the season, usually with Barry Eaton, quite an obvious presence for the club when a bloke in a big furry suit is out and about. Amongst other things they've done they have Freddie out around the town on Saturdays handing out kids tickets ect.
Perhaps having Halicat up in the town on Saturdays could be useful, certainly get the kids interested. Handing out flyers and stuff, Its a low investment thing (already got the Halicat suit only needs some flyers printing) and may get either some new fans involved, but at least make people aware that there is a game coming up.Also, inregards to someone saying they don't know when the matches are, how about putting an A4 stand in the window display at Harveys with a sheet in saying when the next game is. plenty of people must glance in as they walk past?'"
I've spoken to Harveys today and they will display all future games.
Thanks Brew
